Illustrative, built from the block time above and a half-hour on the ground at each end. Shift the whole thing earlier or later and it still closes — the working window is set by flight time, not by the clock.
Brand and category work involves stores, plants, and distribution centres spread across secondary markets — the parts of the business you cannot understand from a headquarters conference room. Between Charlotte and Atlanta that problem has a specific size: 199 nautical miles, and 4 h 22 m of it if you drive.
Wheels up at 07 45 puts you on site in Atlanta by 09 09, with 7 h 27 m on the ground before the aircraft goes back. Home by 18 30. That is about as easy as a there-and-back day gets — no hotel, no overnight bag, and no second day of anyone's time.
The realistic alternative here is driving, and 4 h 22 m each way is the sort of number that gets quietly accepted until someone adds it up. Two of those in a day is most of a working day spent in a car, arriving for the meeting already tired. The scheduled-airline option on a pair this length is usually worse rather than better once you count the drive to the airport, the screening queue, and the connection a route this short often requires.
Concord-Padgett Regional Airport and DeKalb-Peachtree Airport are both business-aviation fields with private terminals, so the ten-minutes-before-departure arrival holds at each end.
We are a broker with three airframes on the sheet. That narrowness is the product: we know the operators, the fields and the real performance rather than guessing across forty types. Every flight is operated by an FAA Part 135 certificate holder.

Why this route works
7 h 27 m on the ground, home by 18 30
Wheels up 07 45, on site 09 09, back on the ramp at JQF by 18 00. 1 h 48 m of flying in total, and nobody's second working day spent in transit.
4 h 22 m of driving, each way
That is the number the road version costs, before traffic has an opinion. Two of them in a day is most of a working day in a car — and an arrival that is already tired.
The buyer sets the window
Line reviews and category meetings are scheduled by the customer. Being unable to make the window is a commercial problem, not a logistical one.
Ten minutes from car to aircraft
Private terminals at both ends. No screening queue, no gate, no boarding group — you park, walk out, and go.
Parachute and autoland, standard
The Vision Jet carries CAPS, a whole-airframe parachute, and Safe Return, a one-button emergency autoland. No other jet in production offers either, at any price.

Questions
Chartering JQF to PDK
How long is the flight from Charlotte to Atlanta by private jet?
About 54 m of block time in a Cirrus Vision Jet, covering 199 nautical miles from Concord-Padgett Regional Airport (KJQF) to DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (KPDK). That includes taxi, climb, and descent; actual time varies with winds and routing.
Can I fly JQF to PDK and back in the same day?
That is what the pair is for. Wheels up 07 45, on site in Atlanta by 09 09, 7 h 27 m on the ground, and home by 18 30 — 11 h 15 m door to door with no overnight.
How many colleagues can travel to Atlanta?
Four seats and 30 lb of baggage a head, on every aircraft in the fleet. We sell one uniform product rather than pricing by airframe, which is what lets us substitute whichever aircraft is available without changing your booking or your price.
Can the Vision Jet use DeKalb-Peachtree Airport?
Yes, with margin. DeKalb-Peachtree Airport has 6,001 feet of runway, well inside the Vision Jet's requirements in any normal condition.
What does a JQF to PDK charter cost?
The price is on this page. It is one all-in figure — aircraft, crew, landing fees, taxes and the ramp at both ends — quoted for four passengers and the hours on the ground shown above. Change the party size or the time you need at Atlanta and it re-prices as you move the controls. That is the figure that reaches accounts payable.
How much notice do you need for a Atlanta trip?
Most legs can be arranged inside 24 hours when an aircraft is available, which is the point of the product for urgent site visits and escalations. You get a straight yes or no immediately rather than a request left open.
